Re: What makes us worth less??
UZ quite teh contrary reigion has its own logic.
in a true islamic system where orphans and widows will be taken care of i can understand why saving children and womewn makes sense, children are teh future, and they need a mother because she will always be true to them, if its a father...than sad to say a step mother may or may not be the same..
so there is logic, based on some conditions
those conditions dont exist, you know how widows are seen and treated in society at large, or orphans, or how women who remarry how their kids play secnd fiddle otr many times they are asked to leave their kids behind.
there is logic in faith..
off topic but I have had a similar argument with ppl in orphanages who say u have to be muslim to adopt from a muslim country, which is fine, but if we as a dsociety and the state has failed these orphans than what right do we have to impose a life of depair on them.
its like, we will nto give u all taht we should and opportunities that u should get based on how an islamic systen shoudl work, yet we will use the same islamic system rulings to disallow you from being adopted by non muslims who can give u a good life.
touchy subject and I see both sides of it, similar to this one
and HHL is right, children and elderly should be helped, but I dont really understand the reason for pushign men to the back in todays day and age. in the old days able men were in the war anyways, not now...
